Library Camp NYC

Library Camp NYC, a free unconference was held at Baruch College today thanks to a group of volunteer organizers. There were some very engaging sessions on topics ranging from microblogging to green librarianship and everyone had a chance to participate and contribute. I had a great time and would highly recommend the “camp” or “unconference” model for future events. The conference wiki has detailed notes from each of the discussion sessions:
